"On Tuesday's opening night of her "Circus" tour at the New Orleans Arena, Britney Spears, the mighty Aphrodite with the troublesome tawdry streak, nonetheless renewed her claim as one of the world's most adept manipulators of the public interest. Powering through a 90-minute tunjuk that integrated her impetuous teen hits with the lebih perverse material from the albums she released after a very public breakdown that made her a constant in the tabloids, the Louisiana native flashed her famous good ol' girl smile at the fans, mostly female, who still find her a worthy patron saint of the erotic arts."

"The Circus tunjuk packs 17 song segments and every under-the-big-top cliche except Siegfried & Roy's white Harimau into a crowd-pleasing jam and 45 minutes. A comeback, certainly, and a solid one at that. But all the sex, api, kebakaran and stomp-and-slither choreography can't disguise the fact that the production needs a bigger, purely musical core (a few lebih songs from the current album would have helped) - and some spontaneity. It wasn't until Spears finally called out "Thank you, New Orleans" after finishing her Womanizer encore that the crowd got a glimpse into the hati, tengah-tengah of their homegirl from Kentwood."

"welcome to Britney's Circus, a big, huge, loud, funny, nonsensical three-ring affair that includes everything under the big bahagian, atas - even an actual big top. It's truly a sight to behold ... the biggest tunjuk under one roof. "

"She danced like she hasn't danced in a very long time. And, one of the best parts of the evening was that Spears seemed to be clear-headed. She did not appear heavily-sedated atau lethargic at all. She was on point!
There is something about Britney that makes her truly special. She has that indescribable "it" factor. People are always rooting for her, even when she was at her lowest lows. We genuinely want to see her succeed! We've seen her grow up in front of our eyes, and we Cinta her - shortcomings and all. She may not be perfect, but that's okay. She's our Britney.
And she's back, bitches!"

"The 27-year-old pop superstar's "Circus" tour kicked off in her utama state of Louisiana at the New Orleans Arena before a nearly sold-out crowd that cheered on their idol as she gyrated and slithered across the stage while Singing some of her biggest hits, from the baru-baru ini "Womanizer" to her first and now classic song, "Baby One lebih Time."
The wild applause has been largely absent from Spears' life since the last time she went on tour in 2004, as the singer endured a devastating downward spiral: Due largely to personal troubles, she went from one of pop music's most profitable, in-demand entertainers to an out-of-control tabloid persona who seemed to be on a path to destruction.
But over the last year, that path has been reversed, as she's embarked on a successful comeback that has seen her image, as well as her career, rehabilitated."
